<h4>Chapter 948: Chapter 953: Massive Compensation (2)</h4>
Zhong Wei hurriedly replied, "Young master, they messed up the room just now. While we were tidying up, we found this on the floor, but unfortunately, it’s already cracked. Young master, what should we do with it?"
"What should we do with it?" Nanrong Hao squinted his eyes, nced at Ren Qing next to him, and said with a smirk, "Miss Ren, what do you say we should do about this?"
Ren Qing nced at the broken blue and white porcin vase and said indifferently, "It’s just a broken vase. At worst, I’ll pay you the money."
"Alright." Nanrong Hao’s lips curled slightly with a hint of a mischievous smile in his eyes, "Since Miss Ren said that, I can be at ease. Liu Kun, go and bring the invoice and proof of collection for this blue and white porcin vase."
"Yes." Liu Kun responded and hurried inside.
Before long, Liu Kun returned to Nanrong Hao’s side. Taking the invoice, Nanrong Hao smiled and handed it to Ren Qing, asking, "Miss Ren, would you prefer a check or a bank transfer?"
"I..." Ren Qing was about to speak, but as her eyes fell on the number on the invoice, her expression changed dramatically, and she eximed, "Twenty-seven million?"
"Nanrong Hao!" Ren Qing’s face was filled with anger as she gritted her teeth and said, "You’re tricking me."
"Tricking you?" Nanrong Hao dropped his previous genial demeanor and said with a cold smile, "Miss Ren, this antique was broken by your people just now, and you publicly said you wouldpensate me at the original price. What, now that the words are out, are you thinking of going back on them?" As he spoke, Nanrong Hao pointed to the blue and white porcin vase, "This item was bought by my grandfather at an auction more than twenty years ago. Over twenty yearster, it has appreciated in value. If you don’t believe me, you can check it out; the market price is definitely not less than thirty-five million. I’m only asking you for twenty-seven million, which is already very fair."
Ren Qing tossed the invoice aside and said coldly, "You keep saying this antique was broken by my people. Do you have any evidence?"
"Evidence? Miss Ren, only you entered our Nanrong family house just now. Other than you, was there anyone else? Are you trying to say that I deliberately broke this antique just to ask you forpensation?" At this, Nanrong Haoughed, "Miss Ren, I’m a businessman, and business is about profit. If this antique were intact, I could sell it for over thirty million. If I deliberately broke it to impensation from you, I would lose millions. Is that something you would do, a loss-making deal?"
Before Ren Qing could respond, Nanrong Hao continued, "Miss Ren, if you don’t want to pay, just say it straight. There’s no need to make excuses. How about this, Officer Xia is here; we can ask Officer Xia to investigate thoroughly to see if you broke my antique or not. How about that?"
"No!" Ren Qing replied in a serious tone, "Nanrong Hao, I’m warning you, don’t make something out of nothing." After speaking, Ren Qing waved her hand and said to her subordinates, "Let’s go."
"Stop right there!" Nanrong Haomanded coldly, "Ren, after breaking my things, you want to leave just like that? Is that how government officials operate?"
"Shut up!" Ren Qing turned back and said, "You have no evidence to prove it was us who broke it, so we have no obligation topensate you."
"I said, I can have Officer Xia conduct an investigation to find out who broke it. Miss Ren, we’re not talking about a matter of a few hundred bucks but millions. I hope you can take this seriously; we ordinary people can’t afford to suffer a loss for nothing."
"Nanrong Hao!" Ren Qing said impatiently, "How many times do I have to repeat myself? I don’t have time to waste with you. I’m telling you, if you want money, there’s none. If you have the guts, go ahead and sue me. Let’s see who’s more powerful." With that, without waiting for Nanrong Hao to respond, Ren Qing led her people away without looking back.
Watching Ren Qing and her people leave, Nanrong Hao picked up the invoice from the ground and sneered quietly.
Just wait and see how long you can keep acting up.
"Officer Xia, thank you for your trouble today." At this moment, Nanrong Wanqing approached and expressed her thanks to Xia Mutong.
"You’re wee, I was just doing what I should do." After a pause, Xia Mutong couldn’t help but ask, "Miss Nanrong, did Ling Chen get into trouble again? Why are government officials after him?"
Nanrong Wanqing sighed bitterly, "Officer Xia, to be honest, I don’t really know either. Sincest night, Ling Chen’s phone has been off, and I can’t reach him even now. I don’t know where he is. Officer Xia, if possible, I’d like to ask you to help me find him, maybe also find out the reason, so I can have some peace of mind."
"Alright, I’ll have someone look for him and inform you as soon as we have any news."
"Thank you!"
"No need to thank me. Alright, I have some things to attend to, so I’ll get going now."

After seeing Xia Mutong off, Nanrong Wanqing exhaled, then turned to Nanrong Hao and asked, "How is it?"
Nanrong Hao replied triumphantly, "Sister, don’t worry; I’ve got it all nned out. Humph! How dare they push their weight around on our Nanrong turf? I’ll make sure they pay for it."
...
Night fell.
Ling Chen sat in a room at the Siheyuan, looking at hisptop screen, browsing the web.
Knock, knock!
The sound of knocking came, and Ling Chen replied, "Come in." Soon, Xia Yue walked in from outside, carrying a tray with several bowls on it, containing both dishes and rice.
"Ling Cheng, stop working for a bit and fill your stomach. You haven’t eaten anything all day; don’t starve yourself."
Ling Chen smiled slightly, "Sister, don’t worry, my body isn’t that fragile." That said, Ling Chen still moved from in front of hisptop to sit down in front of the sumptuous meal.
While eating, Ling Chen’s gaze asionally drifted back to theputer screen. At this moment, he had opened a webpage disying a video. Below the video were the y count and share count. The numbers were rising rapidly, soon surpassing one hundred thousand.
"Ling Cheng, what’s that?" Xia Yue asked curiously.
Ling Chen grinned and said, "There’s someone who keeps bothering me, so I have to keep her busy. This way, she won’t have time for me."
As he spoke, Hu Fei pushed the door open and walked in from outside, saying with a smile, "Ling Chen, see that? These kinds of things still need Sir Hu here. In less than half an hour, the y and share counts have exceeded over one hundred thousand. At this rate, by tomorrow morning, the inte will be filled with this news."
"Well done," Ling Chen praised without reservation, "Fatty, keep an eye on it, try to settle it by tonight. It’s been a whole day, and there’s still no news from Lin Guodong, I reckon it’s close."
